✓ What they do well
2 thingsAdd-ons are the exception, not the rule
Only 20% of quotes include dealer-installed add-ons, averaging $1,495 when present. Most shoppers here never see them.
The price you see is the price you get
Their quoted selling price almost exactly matches the advertised listing price. No mystery markup, no surprise "market adjustment."
! Where to push back
1 thingDoc fee exceeds the state cap
Their typical doc fee of $536 is above CA's legal cap of $85. This is a red flag — every dealer in the state must stay at or below this number.
TipTell them you expect the doc fee at $85 or lower. It's not optional; it's the law.
